i think the hardest part being out on your own is having to make decisions - things like should i cook or shuldnt i cook. should i buy or should i not buy. can i afford it or can i not afford i just hate making decisions. i bought a dining table today and after i set it up, i hate it. its not that bad, but i wish i could have something else. wat is it with me and this never ending want for things i think i want but i dont really want. sometimes, i can just be so confused.
we had a nobel prize winner give a speech this week, needless to say the hall was jam packed, pple sitting on the stairs,standing at the back. a full house. the basic topic being should our portfolios be diversified. really smart old guy though, my math tells me he may be 85 or something. when im 85 i wont even able to get out of my bed, let alone talk to a roomful of students and even some corporate pple. much of the lecture did make sense but i wasnt really listening, i think in crowded places i tend to watch pple more and concentrate less on the one person i should be watching. theonly thing that got my attention was when he dropped water on the laptop and the laptop shut down. i wonder whos laptop that was.
speakin of laptops i bought the school laptop and spent so much money given the fact that they would be supporting it and blah blah etc. but like all the dumb descisions that i make, i didnt really need too. pple generally here are pretty friendly, maybe not so much those who work in restaurants and leasing offices, but in general its ok.
im deciding to join a public speaking class coz i think i mumble too much and sometimes i feel ive reall nothing to say. which is pretty sad. the highlight so far is the pending trip to wall street, which im looking forward too. there is something about that city, i dont know what, but the liveliness, the crowd, the ambience. nothing matches new york city.
i think this time back in school im more focused, theres a huge change from being the freshman in undergrad and a first year in grad school. yea ok, you are older. and yea u should kinda know that wat you are doing is wat you want to do coz you are after all in grad school. but the place is still new, so ure still unsure somewaht, but you dont make so many mistakes. and you dont do things that you dont feel like doing at all. you are much more independanat and you are much more happier.
